Making it MINE too...

Last night, we had company over. His friend had brought over a coffee table side table for the living room. Unfortunantly it made the living room look tiny. I decided with his agreement to turn the stone coffee table into a dinning room table (traditional Japanesse) and the side table as decor. I was on a mission to find nice Japanesse decor, but zero luck! This morning my mission continued. I got home with 2 decor red fish, 4 sitting pillows, koi fish center piece, and bamboo place mats. I could not be any happier with what I found and what I created. Making this home,

into OUR home. MISSION COMPLETED!

Anxiety

It begins: "Anxiety" my psychological and physiological state characterized by cognitive, somatic, emotional, and behavioral components that are combined to create an unpleasant feeling that is typically associated with uneasiness, fear, or worry. The questions begin towards the BIG move on V-day: What do I take? Where am I gonna put it? Will it all fit? What about the animals? Where will their stuff go? Will living with him really work? So, I did what I do best to relax those anxieties and just picked up a handbag full of clothes, my dog and headed to the apartment for the weekend. Once there to my suprise nothing had changed since the last 2 weeks I was there. I made dinner and cleaned EVERYTHING since the OCD kicked in! A day later, the anxieties have returned and still do not know how to answer all my questions. I have now created some new ones (GREAT!): Will I bring everything on V-day? When will I set up everything? Will I have enough time? Are the animals adjust to their new home? Are we gonna do anything for Valentine's Day? The thoughts just keep on racing!

I do it for LOVE...

30 days from today, I will be moving out of my parent's house. This is all I have ever known for 24 years. I will be moving in with my boyfriend of 3 years. We started dating 12/08/06. He moved in my parents' house 12/13/07. Got his own place 7/15/2009. It has been very hard to be apart, seeing each other only on the weekends for 6 months. NOW, in 30 days on 2/14/2010 I will be moving in with him. This is very exciting for the both of us, but especially to me! The change of environment, change of life style, change of me. I will be blogging the entire process. WISH ME LUCK....

Renovation!

The old blog, has its memories (now deleted). I could give an update, but I will focus on how life is now and how it will be changing in the upcoming months.
